[galaxy-user] tophat to cuffdiff without cufflinks

Hi

I comparing gen expression data (RNA-seq) in Arabidopsis. Different genotypes, different conditions. Since Arabidopsis is very well annotated I decided to do cuffdiff directly after tophat. However when building my workflow I found that the cuffdiff said a gtf file is necessary. Please see the picture in this email, under INPUT FORMAT. My question is if I can still compare my libraries in the way I designed below.
